TheMainManSWE has recently released a unique sort of tier list on his YouTube channel. Over the course of 30 minutes, he ranks every game in the Tekken series, including spinoffs such as Tekken Tag Tournament 2 and Street Fighter X Tekken.
A number of professional players have expressed some dislike of Tekken 8 due to its overemphasis on offense in Season 1. However, it would seem that TheMainManSWE ranks Tekken 8 very highly as he has it at the top of his makeshift tier list.
Aside from Tekken 8, TheMainManSWE’s favorite games in the Tekken lineup include Tekken 7, Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection, and Tekken 5. He also gives great ratings to Tekken Tag Tournament and Tekken 4.
Although TheMainManSWE has fond memo0ries of the first Tekken Tag Tournament, he does not view the sequel quite as favorably. Indeed, Tekken Tag Tournament is seen at the very bottom of the tier list, marking it as the worst Tekken game.
Street Fighter X Tekken only just barely ranks above Tekken Tag Tournament on this tier list. Some might argue that this game was so bad that it’s the reason why we’re still ultimately waiting on Tekken X Street Fighter.
Ultimately, all 14 Tekken games have been divided up into one of five different tier categories ranging from best, great, good, alright, and worst.
